Embark on the Newark Audio Tour: Echoes of Legacy in Brick and Bronze

This is your self-guided audio tour through Newark’s pulse, unlocking corners and tales that most visitors walk past. Find the turning points and backstage dramas carved into schools, abbeys, and city streets.

What shouting match echoed inside Newark Abbey’s cloisters the night protests swept the city? Who vanished behind the walls of Science Park High after a controversial science fair project put it on the map? Why does a simple mural at Arts High still spark rumors among alumni decades later?

Explore through whispers and rebellion. Feel the city’s heartbeat in every echo, every alley, every puzzle that refuses to fade. Expect the unexpected at every turn.

Press play and uncover the layers that Newark keeps hidden.
